Against All Odds Young Readers' Edition

Více o knize

A young readers' edition recounts the incredible true story of the Tham Luang Thai cave rescue involving the Wild Boars soccer team. In June 2018, the world held its breath as the team was trapped deep within a flooded cave in Thailand for seventeen days. Their rescue was executed by an international cave-diving team, including Australians Dr. Richard 'Harry' Harris and Dr. Craig Challen, who brought medical expertise and diving skills to the perilous situation. The rescue demanded not only technical skills but also the ability to remain calm under extreme pressure, adapt to changing circumstances, and build trust with the boys and their coach, whose lives depended on the team's efforts. This astonishing and moving narrative highlights themes of courage, determination, and compassion, celebrating the contributions of two Aussie heroes who were named joint Australians of the Year for their pivotal roles in the rescue. This edition is specially tailored for younger readers, featuring new maps and diagrams, photographs, a timeline, a glossary, and a new introduction by the authors, making it accessible and engaging for a younger audience.
